I keep getting the error message
"sdcard/deboot: line 5: syntax error: unexpected "else"
#"
I checked out the linked thread by the OP and downloaded another deboot file but still got the same error.
I have got WP7 dual booted with american android with a 16GB SDcard partitioned 50:50
I managed to get Ubuntu 10.10 working via VNC off the SDcard but would like to get this debian to work to free up storage space.
Any suggestions would be appreciated

I just managed to boot this using SD Android via haret.
I couldn't get it to work before using ACA sd, see my previous post.
I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1437463 SD ICS from tytung.
First boot created debian folder ok but after second boot I could not connect with VNC due to localhost:1 being used by /tmp/X1-lock. I tried using 5902 but no go.
After reading up whether you can delete this, it seems you can.
So using root browser (from market-free) I deleted /mnt/sdcard/debian/tmp/X1-lock (and also X11-UNIX in same place, as this also gives the same problem) and then entering the commands in terminal
I haven't had any problems so far.
Remember to backup everything before trying this, I don't accept responsibility etc.
Note; megaupload link in first post gone, use link in original thread

Not sure why this works, but it does. If you don't reboot after deleting, nothing is functional although it does connect to desktop. It seems that after rebooting, the .x11-unix folder is restored but not the .X-lock file
